Lafco Candle - Family Room (Cortland Apple)

I have to be quite honest...I don't like apple based fragrances. I normally loath them which is quite odd since I am a devoted apple-eater and love them with all my heart as a snack. However, as a scent...they have never appealed to me. It's strange how that works out. But, when my aunt purchased Cortland Apple I was instantly impressed with the quality of the throw. The apple in this isn't one dimensional. It doesn't remind of the typical apple based candles I have smelled (rarely purchased!) in the past. It has layers of depth that made it work in a special way for me. The combination of two varieties of apple was brilliant. I also love the little whiffs of green walnut that come through. I didn't quite catch the dewy leaves in this but I think the fresh apple is so potent that it just covers that up a bit for me. This would make a perfect scent for any apple lover. It worked for me and I am the anti-apple scent guy. I normally wrinkle my nose in disgust at them but this was different for me. Very wonderfully blended.

This fragrance is fresh and crisp like a perfectly tart and juicy apple. I like that they kept the scent simple and didn't add spices to turn it into apple pie or anything gourmand. Instead the created the pure essence of the fruit in a glorious candle. It's very fragrant without being overwhelming. The brilliant red glass is stunning as the candle burns. Fragrance intensity 4/5. Burn quality 4/5.
